Posting from Word 2007 - NOT

I wanted to try out the new Word 2007 blog posting tool as I really, really like the idea of having a nice spell checker to give people the illusion I know how to spell.

I started this morning and finally completed the download this evening. I think everybody on the planet must have been downloading because I usually get pretty fast downloads from the three networks I was trying at different points of the day.

Anyway, I installed Office 2007, Groove 2007, and OneNote 2007. All the installs were clean and smooth, except I had to keep rebooting… I opened Word—this is not Word 2003. I’m reserving judgment, but I don’t want my mom to upgrade yet. I can hear the phone starting to ring…

So, I clicked on the office icon and created a new blog entry. But my registration kept failing. Kirk Evans' Blog made me think this could be easy, but I kept getting an error.

Anybody have success yet?

I guess I’ll just play with Groove and then head back to the code mines…

Office 2007 (Beta)
